having been in new york for so long now i feel extremely lucky to have so many friends from so many different parts of my life: childhood friends, school friends, work friends, happenstance friends. on monday night several of them came over to help me ring in the new year (new to me, so to speak). with plenty of wine, noah & the whale carrying through the speakers, and such good people around me, i felt so very lucky--so very happy and humbled to know such kind and generous people.

i wore fake eyelashes, my most comfortable dress, and padded round the apartment barefoot. i only broke one champagne glass (and that's on me, i was drinking diet coke from it while baking the cake), but i did manage to land a fair amount of bubbly all over the wood floor (those old school champagne glasses have too much exposed surface area).

all in all it was simply a lovely evening.

ps: i must thank you all--you who come to this wee-here-blog-of-mine--for sharing in my birthday yesterday. your kind words of encouragement never cease to inspire and fill me.
i am in your debt, truly.

Thanks for sharing a bit of your birthday with us here on your blog. So fun looking at your pictures and seeing your lovely smile. Wishing you a year filled with love, inspiration, and many, many laughs.xoxo,K

I always pick out new wines based on the label. They say you can't judge a book by it's cover but if it has a neat drawing, catchy colors, or cool design then i'm way more likely to pick it up. And same goes for wine. =)

Looks like you had a wonderful celebration and your cake looks so yummy!

It looks like birthday fun was had by all, especially you, birthday girl. You look so happy, which is the most important thing! And I love your apartment. Goodness, if I could afford a place like that, I would move to NYC in a heartbeat.

i often share your posts with a good friend of mine, who is not a blogger. after reading this one she said, "that wild brunette [not offensive] she is so beautiful, it wont be too long before she finds a great man." i thought i should share. hoping the same. cause you deserve a great man.
